Title: Apparatus for gas cleaning
Inventor: HOWARD PAUL DAVIS
IPC: F01N3/04
Filed: 2015-12-17
Abstract: An apparatus for injecting liquid into a pressurised gas stream containing suspended solids particles and NOx (nitrogen oxides) vapours/gases, the apparatus comprises a gas- liquid-vapour contacting pressure duct (1) including a droplet generator (1a) comprising liquid introducing means leading into said duct and terminating in at least one spray nozzle (2) for producing a fine spray of liquid droplets. Also provided is a droplet separator (5) where liquid and particulate laden gas are separated, a scrubber/absorber (11) and a means (3) for injecting ozone gas into the pressure duct. A contacting chamber (4) allows liquid droplets to commingle with ozone gas as the liquid droplets collide with and capture particulate solids suspended in the pressurised gas stream. Fine particles are removed in the droplet separator and the commingled ozone gas passes through. A N2O5 reaction product enters the scrubber where the pressurised gas is freed of any N2O5 and residual droplets before passing to atmosphere through an outlet (7). The apparatus may be used in the treatment of automotive exhaust gas to rapidly mix and react NOx with ozone (O3) and to remove particulate matter.

Title: Energy storage module and method
Inventor: IVAR HAAKON LYSFJORD
IPC: G06K19/07
Filed: 2018-01-05
Abstract: A DC energy storage module 10 comprises a plurality of serially connected DC energy storage devices 20, and a passive or active RFID tag or NFC device 31, the module being located within a cabinet (30, figure 2) of a DC energy storage system. A method of allocating an identifier to the DC energy storage module comprises installing the module at a predetermined location in the cabinet, sending an activation signal to activate the RFID or NFC device 31 by applying an electromagnetic field generated in a transmitter, which subsequently transmits a location-specific identifier to the tag or device. The identifier may be defined by the identity of the cabinet and the position of the module within the cabinet relative to other modules. The activation signal may comprise specific parameters to indicate a valid signal, without which the tag or device does not respond. One or more modules may be removed from the cabinet and replaced with a replacement module, each module being identical and anonymous, i.e. comprising no identifier, so that an identifier can be allocated to each replacement module once installed. This simplifies system maintenance and the use of RFID or NFC communication over galvanic links improves operator safety.

Title: Camera and washer spray diagnostic
Inventor: AED M DUDAR
IPC: G06K9/00
Filed: 2018-01-18
Abstract: This is a method of determining a fault with a vehicle spray device e.g. screen washer, particularly for autonomous vehicles e.g.in a platoon, where a fault cannot be determined manually by a driver. The method actuates a spray device on a first vehicle 1025 and receives an image, from a second vehicle 1035, of the actuated spray device. It is determined whether a spray device fault or problem exists based at least on the image of the actuated spray device 1045. The fault is transmitted via a first vehicle communications network. If a fault exists, the first vehicle may be navigated to a service facility 1-65. The second vehicle may take images of the spray device before and after actuation to determine the fault. The method may also indicate if there is a fault with a camera on the first vehicle if images are below a required quality. The cameras on the vehicles may be operated upon request 1015, 1030 from other vehicles.

Filed: 2011-07-07
Abstract: Described is the quantitation of analytes, including but not limited to peptides, polypeptides, and proteins, in mass spectrometry using a labeled peptide coupled to a reporter, and a universal reporter. The universal reporter and the reporter are of identical sequence. The universal reporter is heavy isotope labelled. Cleavage of the reporter and analysis via mass spectrometry allows quantitation of the universal reporter, which allows quantitation of the reporter. The reporter is in equimolar concentration to the analyte, and as a result the analyte can be quantified using the universal reporter. Also described are computational methods of calculating peptide concentrations, and methods and compositions for stabilizing proteotypic and reporter peptides in matrices using non-reducing sugars.

Title: Treatment of produced hydrocarbons
Inventor: INGVILD JOHANNE HAUG
IPC: E21B43/00
Filed: 2018-12-21
Abstract: A method for managing metal naphthenates in produced hydrocarbons comprises injecting acid and/or sour gas into produced hydrocarbons in a production well, flowline or riser, to thereby control the pH of fluids contained in the produced hydrocarbons. The treatment acid or gas is injected into a conduit upstream of a treatment facility to exploit the time taken to traverse the conduit and any subsequent production structure to raise the temperature and increase contact or mixing time between the acid or gas. The sour gas and acids are those suitable for preventing or mitigating the formation of metal naphthenates and/or removing metal naphthenates, i.e. that lowers pH of produced fluids e.g. carbon dioxide or hydrogen sulphide or organic asids e.g. formic, propionic, 3-hydroksypropanoic, malonic, maleic, malic, glyoxylic acids oxalic acid, and acetic acid. The pH of the produced fluid is maintained below a threshold pH. Prevents metal naphthenate deposits.
